A 13-limit stellated Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 65/64 13/12 143/128 55/48 5/4 65/48 11/8 143/96 13/8 5/3 55/32 11/6 715/384, with steps of 65/64 16/15 33/32 40/39 12/11 13/12 66/65 13/12 12/11 40/39 33/32 16/15 65/64 768/715. This expands the base hexany out to a full 14 note scale with 6 perfect fifths, although it only has a 12 cent flat one above the root. While it does have quite a few comma steps, in this case they are quite well positioned ones, creating a whole load of extra imperfect but still diatonic fifths that form a chain above the root note, giving you plenty of options to choose between simple or complex chords by using the comma steps in interesting ways, making this scale well above average in interest.
